The actual title is “Chinese scientists guilty of ‘researching while Asian’ in Trump’s America”. It was also submitted with that title. Pretty slimy of the admins to change it just to rationalize keeping the submission up. The title is obvious bullshit because no one in Trump’s administration would have a problem with Japanese scientists “researching while Asian”, because Japan is our ally. Fronald Toompf destroyed yet again, right guys? Stop fucking turning this site into reddit please.
- dang 7y agoWe changed the title to the subtitle. That is routine moderation when titles are baity, as they frequently are. https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comment&storyText=false&prefix=true&page=0&query=by:dang%20subtitle https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme...
- seriouslylying 7y agoYou changed the title to maintain yet another lowkey slam on the current administration. Your top level comment dodges responsibility in typical HN fashion by suggesting you ban accounts equally, when a quick search of threads of this nature shows that to be untrue. Why the charade every single time a controversial topic arises? Why not just admit the bias, if you feel the need to interject, and move on?
